Quickboost QB72373 F6F Hellcat correct radome 1/72 – resin radar cover for Eduard models

Quickboost QB72373 F6F Hellcat correct radome 1/72 is a high-quality resin accessory designed for scale models of the Grumman F6F Hellcat carrier-based fighter in 1:72 scale. This set was created with the most demanding modelers in mind and is dedicated to Eduard kits, although with minor modifications it can also be used with kits from other manufacturers.

The Grumman F6F Hellcat was the main American carrier-based fighter-bomber of World War II. Used primarily by the United States Navy from 1943 to 1945, it gained fame as an effective adversary of Japanese aircraft during actions in the Pacific, for example in the Battle of Saipan or the Leyte engagements. Hellcat variants, especially the newer F6F-5N, were equipped with radar housed in a distinctive radome at the wingtip. This component was often simplified in plastic kits, which resulted in a lack of authentic detail compared to the original.

The Quickboost QB72373 set is made from high-quality polyurethane resin, ensuring crisp details and accurate reproduction of the radome's shape and surface. The product offers a higher level of fidelity compared to the standard plastic parts from Eduard box kits, allowing for significantly increased realism in the finished model. Additionally, resin components are easy to work with and fit perfectly—they do not require excessive modifications or adjustment.
